i'm there at level 26 with a full time job like cool thanks
Yeah once you hit 30s people in their 20s will catch up relatively quickly.
I can't remember which level I'm at but I'm somewhere in my mid 30s and it's definitely a slog at this point. I've been leveling fishing/cooking/mining/bs to my level which has also eaten a bunch of my leveling time.
But being one of the top 5 in the guild level wise I'm not in a rush to push myself to 60 asap as much as I thought I was. It's kind of lonely up here because you can't really run groups (not a whole lot of people are this level yet).
I was in vodka at the time, our best attempt was 2% before the hotfix. We all felt fairly confident that if we'd gotten one more raid reset we would have had it.
that's really when things start spreading out and you have to start being creative in your grind. no one zone can sustain you all the way to 40 in the way that Redridge/Duskwood can just deliver you to 30.
On that note, I've successfully gotten to 28 without doing a single non-dungeon-related quest in RR/Duskwood. It's possible! It takes forever but it's possible!
we also talk about other random shit and clown upon each other
My concern with the shard xp farming isnt the xp, so much as what the effect of dropped loot is.
True, dire maul aint out yet, but I have to think there are certain boe dungeon drops besides the obvious ones hitting the market, and streamers get to auction it because their fans just give them stuff in the hopes of being a regular play partner.

New thread is up.
The only thing I don't like is that I don't have random buffs to throw on other people, which is something I greatly enjoy on the healers.
I've got some of the highest level stuff left in Duskwood too, but I'm definitely planning on finishing them. I really like that zone. For now I'm catching up with everything in Wetlands for some essentially free exp.
27.5 and I've kept Leatherworking/Cooking/Fishing going the whole time. I can make a couple of cool things with LW; it feels more impactful on my leveling gearing than Engineering was back in the day. I can tell I'm going to miss my Everlook teleporter and easy access to the good ammo, but Skinning is so much less irritating than Mining was. Every once in a while I'll run across a field of skinnable corpses and just have a field day.

I had to bail on a DM run the other day because my baby was screaming at 1am and my wife came in the computer room to tell me "your turn".
That's fine, we literally just invited him and I was waiting on the boat in menethil to get to darkshore to fly to bfd.
I think he said "that's too long" and bailed and then ~8 minutes later we were in the instance. I like to imagine that he waited hours to find another group to take him. Needing to bail because you got aggro is nbd.
Not questing is entirely what I plan on doing.
This guide is basically where I got my battle plan from
I want to do it past 40 though because that is actually when the questing gets rough. Maybe I will quest through Tanaris because I think that was one of my favorite zones for it as the routes were comfortable. Then grind the hell out of the dungeon there as that place is freaking amazing for EXP.
